To reduce carbon emissions and meet energy targets, the government boiler scheme replaces old boilers and heating systems. Applying for the free boiler scheme in Burnley could cover the cost of new boilers or heating efficiency improvements for your home. This should reduce energy bills and support the most vulnerable households. The scheme is part of the wider ECO scheme, available from July 2022 to March 31st 2026.
Whilst we want to help the government meet their sustainability targets, the scheme is not available to anyone. It aims to support the most vulnerable households, meaning you must meet some criteria to be eligible. In addition to this, we also assess your current heating efficiency and boiler systems to ensure it needs replacing. The criteria you must meet to be eligible includes:
- Child Benefit
- Pension Guarantee Credit
- Income-related Employment and Support Allowance (ESA)
- Income-based Jobseeker’s Allowance (JSA)
- Income Support
- Tax Credits (Child Tax Credits and Working Tax Credits)
- Universal Credit
- Housing benefit
- Pension credit saving credit
You can choose to apply online or speak to our team at Discover Eco. Your application and eligibility may also be affected by the number of claimants within your house. If you are unsure on your eligibility, what criteria you meet and how much the grant will cover you for, our team are available for advice. We will provide full consultation, discussing any issues with you, your household or boiler and assist with the application.
After the application is complete, our team are fully trained and qualified to supply and install your boiler. We also work with other heating appliances and install home insulation for high efficiency heating. Working with the best suppliers, all boilers we install have an ‘A’ rating for the best possible efficiency. They also include a 5-year warranty, keeping your energy bills as low as possible.
